Key Stage 1

Year 1 Science Week 2020

As year 1 had been learning all about plants, we set up an experiment to see if we could change the colour of white flowers. We used our prediction skills to decide whether we thought putting the white flowers in food colouring would change the colour and here are our results!

Year 2 Science Week 2020

One of the activities we asked the children to carry out was a parachute investigation. . They had to work in pairs to make two parachutes. They could change just one thing, for example the size of the parachute, the shape, the material or putting a hole in one of the parachutes but not the other. They used a clothes peg to represent the person. They dropped them at the same time and observed what happened.
